I have followed a variety of guides, and eventually found that synaptics
can't find the touchpad, so it unloads.  When looking at
/proc/bus/input/devices,
I don't see N: Name=3D"AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint".  I don't have the machine=
 up
right now, but I believe it shows a generic PS/2 device.  I had thought tha=
t
the patch discussed in this thread actually addressed this specific issue,
but maybe I'm wrong.

Thanks again for the response.

Daniel

Yes, you can scroll both vertically and horizontally with the trackpad<br>
